shr-core turning off the scaling in of applications

hi altogether,

does anyone know if there is a switch to turn off the animation of windows being
scaling in to 480*640 in the elementary settings. this animation is really slow
on the freerunner and anything but smooth.

best regards

robin

FOSDEM 2012 - Presentation online

To all,

Due to traffic jams on my way to Brussels I did not make it on time for our to FOSDEM presentation. The snow had something to do with it. But we shared the slide deck for review with all contributors, so people of Golden Delicious also had a golden copy ;-)

Someone from Nikolaus' team took over, so the presentation went ahead as planned.

Thanks Nikolaus.

The slides are also available online for download on the AoF project page.

Feel free to distribute further.

QtMoko v39 for GTA04

Hi,
you can now download QtMoko v39 from here [1]. For more info about QtMoko 
please visit our homepage [2].

Changes since previous version are:

  * gta04-gsm-voice-routing for gsm voice calls on GTA04
  * fixed cruxus to close pcm device when not used
  * powering up modem with gpio186 on GTA04A04 in qpe.sh
  * remaped long AUX button function to short POWER
  * 3.2 kernel with gpio186 enabled

From the user point of view most important is, that you will now have sound in 
incoming call - i have fixed the bug where pcm device was not closed after 
playing ringtone.

Voice routing is now done in C program. I have for now enabled the output from 
the program on /dev/tty0 which means that you will see text over QtMoko GUI 
during call. It's quite nice for debugging and to see if call is still in 
progress (the routing indicator stops rotating after remote party hangs up). 
You can disable the output if you edit /opt/qtmoko/qpe.env and comment out 
this line:

	export GSM_VOICE_ROUTING_LOGFILE=/dev/tty0

One thing that needs fixing is earpiece and speaker volume. Earpiece is too low 
and speaker is too loud. But you can quite easily adjust them to your needs. 
Just launch alsamixer during call and when done do:

	alsactl -f /opt/qtmoko/etc/alsa/gsmearpiece.state store

or
	alsactl -f /opt/qtmoko/etc/alsa/gsmspeaker.state store

Since this version QtMoko does not need AUX button. Mine has broken (the same 
is on my Freerunner) and i never liked it's ergonomy. Now the screen with 
running apps is brought with short POWER press. You have to suspend the phone 
by locking screen (and setting "suspend" interval in "Power Management" under 
"When locked").

Btw if you ever have the same problem with broken AUX, you might take a look 
here [4]. It's modified boot.scr so that it always shows the nice bootmenu 
where you can select booting from NAND/SD. For installing QtMoko to NAND 
please check this [5] ("Step 12 - jffs2") and this [6].

It would be nice if someone could test this version on GTA04A04.

Regards

Radek

QtMoko v39 for Freerunner

Hi,
i have uploaded QtMoko v39 which should fix problems with v38, that is:

* alsa states are now in correct place and sound should work now again
* the kernel package should be now again installable

I have quickly tested it in NAND and it looked ok to me. I hope there will be 
no problems this time.

Regards

Radek

[semi-OT] the open tablet

It seems that somebody from KDE has created an open, hackable tablet with  
Linux and Plasma Active:

Microtouch

Just spotted on: http://blog.p2pfoundation.net

Microtouch - The ultimate AVR-based iPhone killer!
http://www.ladyada.net/products/microtouch/

"Sure, the iTouch is pretty cool. But who wants such a locked down device? Why not build your own
touch-screen device, with your own apps, all on open source hardware and using open source tools? OK, it
can't play MP3s, but it does have a 320x240 TFT color display with resistive touch screen, an Atmega32u4
8-bit microcontroller, lithium polymer battery charger, backlight control, micro-SD slot, and a
triple-axis accelerometer. Yeah, this is the next big thing and for those of us who like to DIY, you can do a
lot of cool stuff with this dev board."

+ video showcasing using it as ebook reader

Fwd: script is corrupt or invalid: (was: QtMoko v38 for GTA02)

Oops, I sent message only to Radek. Sorry for that.

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Guilhem Bonnefille <guilhem.bonnefille <at> gmail.com>
Date: 2012/2/4
Subject: script is corrupt or invalid: (was: QtMoko v38 for GTA02)
To: Radek Polak <psonek2 <at> seznam.cz>

Upgrading my QtMoko system, I found the following warning:

insserv: warning: script is corrupt or invalid:
/etc/init.d/../rcS.d/S96overcommit_memory.sh

Not sure the reason of this warning, but I noticed a white space
between "#!" magic and "/bin/sh" command on the first line. Or perhaps
just the missing insserv header to help it decide when to start this
"service".

Qtmoko all version : strange segfault

Hi freerunists !

A friend of mine have a moko that segfault at the beginning of QtMoko 
(all versions). As the logs are empty, it is a bit difficult to track 
somrthing.

Do you know how to activate logs ?

When the firs clock appear when the screen appears, a little black 
square with a carret appears on the top left, and the clock stop turning.
I tried to restart qpe manually, I only see a "segmentation fault" 
message, everything else works great (internals, commnications ...)

Does anybody have an idea of what could the problem be ?
on SHR the same segfault arrives just after boot. I think it might be a 
component error, or filesystem.

Thanks a lot.

Thomas
